Frequently Asked Questions

Why choose a high tension hacksaw?

High tension means the blade is held firmly in the frame, so it stays straight under load and cuts with less flex and wandering. That produces a cleaner, more accurate cut and reduces the chance of the blade twisting and breaking mid cut. It is the better choice for serious metal cutting work.

How do I change the blade?

The H315 uses a quick-change blade system, so you release the blade without needing a separate tool. Slacken the tension, remove the old blade, fit the new one and retension. The listing does not state a spare blade in the pack beyond the fitted bi-metal 24TPI blade, so keep spares on hand for longer jobs.

What can I cut with a 24TPI blade?

A 24 teeth per inch blade is a general purpose metal cutting blade. It suits thin to medium walled metal, including pipe, bar, aluminium, steel and copper. For thicker sections you would use a coarser blade, and for very fine work a finer one. The bi-metal blade that ships with this frame is a solid all rounder for trade work.
